  The Eu­ro­pean XFEL is a 3.4km long X-ray Free Elec­tron Laser in the final con­struc­tion and com­mis­sion­ing phase in Ham­burg. It will pro­duce 27000 bunches per sec­ond at 17.5GeV. Early 2015 a first elec­tron beam was pro­duced in the RF-photo-in­jec­tor and the com­mis­sion­ing of con­sec­u­tive sec­tions is fol­low­ing dur­ing this and next year. The huge num­ber and va­ri­ety of de­vices for the ac­cel­er­a­tor, beam line, ex­per­i­ment, cryo­genic and fa­cil­ity sys­tems pose a chal­leng­ing con­trol task. Mul­ti­ple sys­tems, in­clud­ing in­dus­trial so­lu­tions, must be in­ter­faced to each other. The high num­ber of bunches re­quires a tight time syn­chro­niza­tion (down to pi­cosec­onds) and high per­for­mance data ac­qui­si­tion sys­tems. Fast feed­backs from front-ends, the DAQs and on­line analy­sis sys­tem with a seam­less in­te­gra­tion of con­trols are es­sen­tial for the ac­cel­er­a­tor and the ini­tially 6 ex­per­i­men­tal end sta­tions. It turns out that the Eu­ro­pean XFEL will be the first in­stal­la­tion ex­ceed­ing 2500 FPGA com­po­nents in the Mi­croTCA form fac­tor and will run one of the largest PROFIBUS net­works. Many sub­sys­tem pro­to­types are al­ready suc­cess­fully in op­er­a­tion. An overview and sta­tus of the XFEL con­trol sys­tem will be given.
